I am going to move my main Amiga system to its old Desktop case and i am wondering about the best way to install a Delfina (http://www.amiga-hardware.com/showhardware.cgi?HARDID=1270) into it. It just wont fit at all. :hammer: Any suggestions?
I mounted one of these in my 1200 case - in the top left hand corner. You'll need a longer clockport cable though or an extension. I drilled 2 holes in the lower amiga case, ones that correspond to the holes in the delfina card. The card sits nicely in the corner, and the lid will close without problems too. And of course, the amiga RF shielding needs to be removed (just the top one).
Where the holes are in the case I used 2 stand offs. These were screwed in place from underneath. The snand offs had a screws length of thread on them, and also raised the card by about a 7mm. This was enough to clear the rear left side of the amiga shield. So the delfina sits nicely. The holes in the delfina are slightly too large though, so I used some heat shrink tubing around the thread of the stand offs to make it a tighter fit (so as not to rattle). You can also secure with tiny nuts if required (but be careful not to create a short circuit with the nuts).
